Peter Ginsberg, the attorney for Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma, has served subpoenas to former Saints' defensive coordinator Gregg Williams and former assistant coach Mike Cerullo, CBSSports.com's Jason La Canfora confirmed Tuesday. ESPN first reported the story. The subpoenas are for a defamation suit against NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

Sources told La Canfora that Williams and Cerullo have a period of time to respond to being served, and then there is another window of 15-30 days allotted to schedule an actual date for the deposition to take place. In all likelihood, nothing happens until November.

Meanwhile, Vilma's legal team is seeking more information as part of their lawsuit against the league.
